Basics of the Christian Faith

First Steps is a course written and complied by Dave and Denise Turner that grounds the believer in the basics of the Christian faith. Intentionally designed to remove technical terminology while explaining the content of the basics of the faith, the course runs over 6 sessions. Designed in 3 'blocks' with 2 subjects in each block, the course covers the things we consider most vital for the believer to know and practise. The course is designed to be run in small groups and as a centralised course with trained leaders and presenters. The content is as follows...

• The first block lays the primary foundation and covers 'The Great Swop' (the doctrine of 'Justification through faith') and 'So I'm born again, now what?' (the doctrine of Sanctification).
• The second block builds on this foundation by equipping believers with 'tools' to live the Christian life through training individuals how to read and understand the Bible and how to pray, individually and in small groups.
• The final block encourages the believer to take the 'first steps of obedience' and covers the doctrines of Baptism in water and the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

Ideal for whole Lifegroups to attend when run centrally, it is also very exciting to lead new believers through the basics of the faith. If you want to attend for your own benefit or be trained to be competent to use the material in your Lifegroup please contact us on 021 447 3630.
